Nicholas and his friends always find exciting things to do...
Text by René Goscinny, with illustrations by Jean-Jacques Semp
Overview:
- The adventures of the world’s best-loved French schoolboy and his
friends are now available in paperback to be read, re-read and loved
forever
- A constant best-seller in France for more than fifty years
- One in a series of books, Nicholas and the Gang is
regularly used by primary and junior school teachers in countries all
over the world, and is perfect for sharing or reading independently
Nicholas and the Gang contains 16 stories about Nicholas, the
French schoolboy, and his friends, many of whom are familiar from the
other books in the series: there's Alec, who's always eating; Cuthbert,
who's always top of the class; Matthew, who's always bottom of the class; and Mary Jane, the little girl with
blonde pigtails who lives next door. As usual, the children get into all
kinds of trouble, even though they have the very best intentions. In
this book, they try to make friends with the owner of a new bookshop
near their school, take part in a chaotic radio interview, and play an
unusually messy game of chess. |
